BEHN + BATES
Optimum product protection, improved storage, high
advertising impact, flexible filling volumes, simple
opening and re-closing of the used bags – all these are
convincing features of the open-mouth bag.
After considering these options you decide at the early
project stage which packing material best meets your
product and your marketing targets:
n a pre-fabricated open-mouth gusseted or flat bag made
of paper, PE and/or PP
n an endless gusseted film made of plastic
n a big bag or an octabin
We advise you with regard to the proper filling
technology – decisive factors are the required output
and the question as to whether the machine is to be
operated manually or automatically.

Packaging companies with low production outputs or
only occasional bagging needs do not normally require
filling systems with automatic empty bag application
and full bag discharge. Even so they still demand precise
filling of their products. We offer the right solution:
n BOH filling station
powder filling par excellence in the case of manual
applications
n gravity packer
the all-rounder for all granules, grains and pellets
In either case the open-mouth-bag is applied manually to
the filling spout. The filling – normally carried out according
to the gross filling principle – is started by a push-button.
The product can be compacted during the course of filling
by bag vibrators arranged underneath the bag chair.
The filled bag is manually taken off the spout and
transferred to the chosen closing station, e. g. sewing
machine. Output: up to 160 bags/h.
Net weigher with bagging spout NWEDO
The quantity to be measured is the output
If high outputs of up to 1,200 bags/h are required in
manual operations, the product is pre-weighed accurately
by our net weigher before being filled into the bag in a
quick and efficient way.
MANUALLY OPERATED: BOH, GRAVITY PACKER AND NWEDO
The demanding products: powders & flours
Only the well balanced combination of dosing, filling spout and de-aerationprovides optimum filling results when filling powders and flours. For low-airdosing we recommend:
n impellers n augers
Filling is effected by a special powder spout. It seals the bag in a dust-tight way during the filling process – de-aerating it at the same time.
You profit from our experience:
n clean bag filling
due to product-specifically chosen filling spout with
all-side clamping jaws
n space saving
due to compact machine designs
n cost saving
due to low operating and maintenance costs
n easy handling
due to clear operator guidance, easy cleaning and
maintenance
n flexibility
due to possible use of a moving frame to service
different storage silos
The less complicated products: granules & grains
The handling of granules and grains is easier. Their flowing action is excellent. They rarely raise dust. Depending on their grain size, we advise to dose them by:
n flaps n vibrating chutesn flat slide valves n belt feeders
They are filled by either a gravity tube or a flap type spout thus pouring into thebag easily.
The linchpin: Your productOur solution: The right dosing and the adequate filling spout – regardless of the machine variant you choose

BEHN + BATES
You profit in all respects:
n high cleanliness
due to product-specific dosing and filling within a dust-
tight machine cabinet
n exact weights
due to separate coarse and fine flow filling with the
gross principle for powders or due to the application of
a net weigher for granulated products
n attractive bag shapes
due to efficient product densification by special bag
vibrators and additional vacuum probes if required
n good product protection
due to project-specifically selected bag closure,
e. g. folding, welding or hot-melt activation
n high advertising impact
due to application of appealing bag materials with
high-quality imprints, e. g. in a gloss finish
For the fully automatic clean packing of your pre-
fabricated open-mouth bags we offer the TOPLINE®
system. It was originally developed for powders and
flours filled according to the gross filling principle. The
net filling principle is used for granules and grains
bagged at higher outputs. This means the product is
weighed before filling.
The complete bag processing is carried out in a compact,
dust-tight machine cabinet – starting with the bag feed and
filling up to the densification and sealing. The bag
magazine is chosen according to your individual project
requirements. The packing outputs vary depending on the
product and machine design – between 250 bags/h with
gross weighing and 1,200 bags/h with net weighing.
In brief: The function
The separated empty bag is taken out of the magazine,
exactly aligned and opened by sucker bars. Bag grippers
take the pre-opened bag to apply it securely to the dust-
tight powder or flap type filling spout. In order to compact
your products during or after filling we equip the TOPLINE®
with vibrators – in specially encapsulated food-grade
design – and, if required, with an additional vacuum probe.

Profit maximization due to our trend-setter:
n optimum protection against humidity
due to tightly welded PE bags
n emotive commercialization
due to product packing in PE film bags that can be
easily fitted with a high-quality imprint thus attracting
a great deal of attention
n optimum storage
due to compact, box-shaped bags that are easy to stack
and most suitable for automatic storage systems
n environment friendly packing
due to reduced packing material needs and application
of energy-saving and low-maintenance components
n high operating efficiency
due to extended operating times with reduced cleaning
and maintenance intervals
n comfortable operation
due to clear operator guidance with the help of modern
touch panels and thanks to easy batch or size changes
In future an increasing number of food and animal feed
producers will want to fill their products into plastic
bags. The motive: Each producer is keen on keeping
packing costs as low as possible. The FFS bag meets this
requirement to the largest possible extent. It is formed
out of a gusseted tubular film, filled and sealed thus
enabling the bag size to be optimally adjusted to the
product. As a result film consumption is reduced.
Our proven FFS systems are especially suitable for grains &
granules, e. g. crystal sugar, rice, corn or animal feed
pellets. They reach outputs of 600 up to 1,200 bags/h
depending on the filling product and the machine variant.
In brief: The function
The film length needed for your product and your filling
weight is automatically cut from the film reel. The bottom
seam is welded with a minimum overlap. For an optimum
bag shape and also for easy and complete bag emptying it
can be fitted with special corner welds.
Grippers take the pre-shaped, opened bag and apply it to
the filling spout that fills your product according to its
needs – de-aerating and densifying it at the same time.
The filled and compacted bag is then welded tight at the
top and transported to the palletizing system.
SOPHISTICATED: THE FFS TECHNOLOGY
Gross weighing systems are most reliable when it comes to dosing products in
a very gentle way or the available height is limited. If, however, high outputs
are required, we recommend our net weigher equipped with a patent-
registered dosing system for optimum filling times.
For decades it has proved its worth for the weighing, dosing and filling of
bulk products as well as for the recording of production quantity data.
More than 2,500 net weighers are used in industrial operations around the
globe.
bin sizes: 66 – 120 l
output: up to 2,000 batches/h
The BEHN+BATES net weigher: High outputs – accurate weights – low maintenance
All our filling machines are equipped with the MEC® weighing
electronics developed within our parent company specifically for the
requirements of the packaging industry.
n The operational sequences are well and clearly structured.
n The programming is easy due to alpha-numeric keys.
n The operating personnel are guided through the menu by a clear
text display in German, English or their native language.
n In case of product or bag change the individual filling parameters
can be retrieved fast and easily by the 99 product sort storage.
Over 30,000 MEC® electronics are used around the globe. They all
stand for high reliability in continual operations and correspond to
international weighing standards as they are OIML approved.

Cleanliness and efficiency from production to
consumption
n product protection
Your product is well protected from moisture and
outside influences in tightly sealed PE bags allowing for
a long shelf life.
n cleanliness
Dust-free filling, sealed filling spouts and de-dusting in
the filling machine set standards: A clean packing
environment is a reality.
n compact bag shape
A compact bag shape is achieved by filling and
simultaneously de-aerating the bag. The integrated
corner weld enhances the proven box shape of the filled
bag. The result: Attractive palletized bags and optimum
use of storage and shipping spaces.
n tear resistance
Modern films are extraordinarily durable and tear-
resistant. Thus, bag breakage along the entire logistical
supply chain is reduced to a minimum.
n perfect advertising impact
Premium products, packed in appealing bags with high-
quality imprint and gloss finish, lead to increased
acceptance among your customers – and thus to higher
sales.
In the beginning, only granules were reliably filled into
FFS bags. But thanks to newly sophisticated
technologies, the FFS packaging process now supplies
excellent results for powders, e. g. starch and dextrose
or flours and premixes, too.
Proven technologies form the basis of the ADAMS®
The proven filling machines ROTO-PACKER® and FFS
system made by our parent company, HAVER & BOECKER,
have been combined. The result is the ADAMS® – our new
trendsetter for filling powders & flours into FFS bags. You
tell us what products you want to handle at which speeds.
We will design the ADAMS® to meet your requirements: Up
to 8 filling spouts are possible.
In brief: The function of the ADAMS®
The empty bags, which are formed from an endless
gusseted film, are applied onto the dust-tight
BEHN+BATES powder spout filling your product into the
bag according to the gross filling system – by using an air
or impeller filling unit. Product compaction is carried out by
vibrators adapted to the needs of your product – and if
necessary, by a vacuum lance.
The upright standing bags are closed in a tight and
hygienic way directly after filling. Then they are flattened
and palletized.
TREND-SETTING: THE ADAMS® TECHNOLOGY

Cleanroom filling
Special requirements apply for the filling of big bags under
cleanroom conditions. In order to assure that no forbidden
materials such as wooden pallets get into the cleanroom
we have developed a special shuttle system. After filling it
takes over the big bag, transports it out of the cleanroom
and puts it onto a pallet for further processing – and all this
to comply with the required hygiene standards.
Accessories
For trouble-free big bag processing right from the
beginning up to the end we offer you a large selection of
additional components, e. g. automatic pallet separator,
cover sheet dispenser or full pallet transport systems. You
specify the degree of automation – we supply you with the
equipment you need.
In the logistics chain big bags are a cost-effective
alternative to conventional bags. They are available in
different designs, e. g. with internal stiffening for better
stability. But what all of them have in common is they
must allow quick and clean processing – goals that can
be easily reached with our big bag filling station.
Operator convenience
The rear fixing hooks for the big bag loops can be slewed
towards the front thus being easily reached by your
operating staff. All 4 hooks open automatically after the
filling process.
Cleanliness
For clean product filling the big bag is sealed by an
inflatable sleeve with counter pressure ring.
Stable bags
Product dosing and densification are decisive factors for
stable big bags. We use vibrating tables to compact your
product. Highly fluidised products can be additionally
de-aerated by vacuum probes during or after filling.
Tight bag closure
For optimum product protection against outside influences
the filled big bag can be closed by turning the filling spout
– our so-called tulip forming. On request, this process can
also be carried out automatically.
